A growing Medical Devices company, based in South Birmingham, are currently looking for a senior product design specialist to build and lead a team in the invention and continued development of medical devices.

This is a very interesting role that will allow you to feel like you are in a start-up organisation, while having strong financial backing of an established company that offers job security. Specifically, they are looking to grow and need someone to lead and add to the current design team.

You will work hands on with the development of medical devices, so you will need to have come from a medical devices product design background. We are looking for people who have a mechanical engineering, industrial design, human factors design or another product design related background in medical devices.

Your role will be instrumental in this company’s growth, so ideally you will have the ambition to match. If all goes to plan, I would expect your role to develop into a more senior position and possible the chance to join the board.

Apart from product design, line management and recruiting further engineers you will have a wide range of responsibilities. These can include project management of brand new medical technologies, understanding of the quality assurance and regulatory standards the products will need to adhere to, commercial understanding of a products potential and many other duties.

This is not a role for someone who wants to go to work and do a set out job, this is a role for someone who can develop and grow with the demands of new technologies.

It is expected that you would hold a degree within a related subject while also having industry exposure in the medical devices sector for a number of years. When successful you will be rewarded with an excellent salary and benefits package, along with the career development you can expect.

Ideally, you will have knowledge of a number of different medical devices, potentially from a consultancy background or working for a company that required you to work on multiple technologies. However, if you have a proven track record of managing a medical devices product development team that concentrated on one type of device, we’d still like to hear from you.

I’m expecting quite a bit of interest in this role, so if you are interested in this role please make an application now.

For more information, please feel free to call Andrew Welsh, Director of Medical Devices recruitment specialists Newton Colmore Consulting, on + or make an application and one of our team at Newton Colmore Consulting will contact you.
